STILLWATER – The Oklahoma State women's tennis team remained at No. 7 in this week's Intercollegiate Tennis Association team rankings released on Tuesday. The Cowgirls have now been ranked in the ITA top 25 for 52 consecutive weeks, and in the top 10 for four-straight weeks.

Senior Viktoriya leads the Cowgirls in singles, coming in at No. 10 once last week week. Aliona Bolsova rose a spot to No. 42, while senior Katarina Adamovic jumped 10 spots up to No. 66. Junior Vladica Babic made the big move of the week, rising from No. 92 to No. 73 in last week's poll. Senior Carla Tur Mari rounds out the list of ranked Cowgirls at No. 109.
Â
In doubles, Tur Mari and Babic are once again in the top five, moving up a spot from their previous ranking. After being posted at No. 37, Bolsova and sophomore Sofia Blanco come in at No. 23 in last week's rankings. Lushkova and Adamovic are ranked No. 44 in the doubles poll.
Â
Including the Cowgirls, the Big 12 has five teams in the ITA top 25 this week, led by No. 6 Texas Tech. Baylor comes in at No. 15, while Texas jumps a spot to No. 21 and Kansas is slotted at No. 22.
Â
The Cowgirls will put their conference win streak on the line this weekend when they head to the Lone Star State to face the sixth-ranked Red Raiders and No. 33 TCU. OSU will open the weekend in Lubbock, Texas, on Friday to take on Texas Tech at 5 p.m., before traveling to Fort Worth for a showdown with the Horned Frogs Sunday at 1 p.m.
